The weather is warming up, the borders are opening, and we are getting ready for summer. Here’s what’s hot for the holiday season.
Pink spirits
Rosé is the Midas touch of 2020; when added to a white spirit it’s a solid gold hit. Pink spirit has emerged as a burgeoning trend among Millennials linked to the Rosé revolution and a thriving cocktail culture. Tapping into this pink drink trend, Treasury Wine Estates (TWE) launched Squealing Pig Rosé Gin last year to great acclaim, and now we can add SVEDKA Rosé Vodka to the pink spirit repertoire. With the added bonus of lighter alcohol, at 30 per cent SVEDKA Rosé Vodka poured over ice with a splash of soda is the ultimate summer party pink drink.
Rye Vodka
On the back of the gin wave, vodka is experiencing a renaissance of its own. Local Brisbane-based vodka distiller, Idle Hour, has joined the movement and produces an Australian rye vodka that challenges the perception vodka is a tasteless spirit. Idle Hour encourages us to appreciate pure vodka for its character and flavour.
“Our unique flavour profile, locally sourced ingredients and Australian chutzpah are what positions Idle Hour as a frontrunner in the global resurgence of vodka, putting Australian vodka on the map and innovating the status quo," said Ewen Pettit, Idle Hour Co-Founder.
